Entering Third Year, Preston Smith Will Keep Looking Forward

While linebacker Preston Smith had some inconsistencies on the field last year, he's excited for his third year in the league with Greg Manusky on board as defensive coordinator.

Redskins linebacker Preston Smith knows that last year was filled with inconsistent play and that his statistics didn’t reflect the progression he was hoping to take after a breakout rookie campaign, in which he gobbled up eight sacks and came on strong during the second half of the year.

But the Mississippi State product is hopeful that a few changes this offseason – some personal, some with the team – will help him get back on track and make a bigger splash for this third year in the league.
